The Dean campaign has invited me to travel with the Governor — ok, actually, in the large crowd of people around the Governor — during the first leg of the "Sleepless Summer Tour" in order to blog about it on the Dean campaign weblog. I'm going to meet up with them in Falls Church, VA on Saturday night and go to Milwaukee for a late-night rally. I've never traveled with a presidential campaign, although in 1960 I was attendee #15,672 at a rally for JFK at the Roosevelt Field Mall. I'm excited. My inclination at the moment is to do a more complete write-up on my site (= here) and a briefer version on the Dean weblog. As you may know from my conference blogging, I tend to go on a bit recording details, and I don't think that's exactly what the Dean weblog folks are looking for. But, we'll have to see as the events unfold. [Disclosure: I work for the Dean campaign as Senior Internet Advisor. No money changes hands, but the campaign is paying my airfare. I am partisan.] Chris Lydon has posted sounds from his recent trip to New Hampshire where, by chance, the first "hot house-party...was Howard Dean's." He includes Dean's 24-minute speech, 20 minutes of Q & A with Dean, and Q & A with the crowd. I am on the road and haven't had a chance to download the mp3's, but I have no problem blindly recommending anything Chris does. Posted

All right! I'm looking forward to meeting you in Milwaukee tomorrow night!
And save room for custard!

So long as the custard is delivered horizontally on a plate and not vertically in a mobile pie.
See you there!
